Manage generic servers using scripting

We can use WAS to define, start, stop, and monitor generic servers.

A generic server is a server that the WAS manages but did not supply.

Procedure

• To define a generic server:

  ### Jacl

  $AdminTask createGenericServer mynode {-name generic1 -ConfigProcDef
  {{"/usr/bin/myStartCommand" "arg1 arg2" "" "" "/tmp/workingDirectory"
  "/tmp/stopCommand" "argy argz"}}}
  $AdminConfig save 

  ### Jython

  AdminTask.createGenericServer('mynode', '[-name generic1 -ConfigProcDef
  [[c:/tmp/myStartCommand.exe "a b c" "" "" C:/tmp/myStopCommand "x y z"]]]')
  AdminConfig.save()
  

• To start a generic server, use the launchProcess parameter, for example:

  ### Jacl

  set nodeagent [$AdminControl queryNames *:*,type=NodeAgent]
  $AdminControl invoke $nodeagent launchProcess generic1
  

  ### Jython

  nodeagent = AdminControl.queryNames ('*:*,type=NodeAgent')
  AdminControl.invoke(nodeagent, 'launchProcess', 'generic1')
  

  Example output:

  true
  

  or

  false
  

• To stop a generic server, use the terminate parameter, for example:

  ### Jacl

  set nodeagent [$AdminControl queryNames *:*,type=NodeAgent]
  $AdminControl invoke $nodeagent terminate generic1
  

  ### Jython

  nodeagent = AdminControl.queryNames ('*:*,type=NodeAgent')
  AdminControl.invoke(nodeagent, 'terminate', 'generic1')
  

  Example output:

  true
  

  or

  false
  

• To monitor the server state, use the getProcessStatus parameter, for example:

  ### Jacl

  $AdminControl invoke $nodeagent getProcessStatus generic1
  

  ### Jython

  AdminControl.invoke(nodeagent, 'getProcessStatus', 'generic1')
  

  Example output:

  RUNNING
  

  or

  STOPPED
